a mess. joe trip i, i'm sure that mess is accidental, and that the democratic party in no way wanted this outcome. >> no, i don't think that is true. look, the president made it clear, that he supports gay marriage. he has been ear about that. it is a position he did not have one that evolved. but heas been very clear, and very outspoken once he made that historic including, when he you know, mentioning gays, in the his inaugural speech i think it was that is first time a president has done that he is evolved in a -- i think important way. in this debate, pushing it forward, and by the way, a lot of states are adopting these laws now, and looks like country and history is moving in that direction as well. we'll see what the court says but i don't think there is a problem with them filing a
11:01 pm

nothing, you are big money. you can can afford to fork over some cash. i'm neil cavuto, true, likes of linkedin and facebook not paying a penny in taxes to the federal government. to me is makes no senate all. exxonmobil still evil if it paid more than $31 billion in taxes and chevron still represen thoss paying highest rate, they don't rate any media attention -- that
11:03 pm
good. mark zuckerberg paying no rate buzz not rate any media attention, what his company does is gd, and cool. even though really, does not end up with washington seeing cool cash. lingeredin pays zero percent and walmart pays federal income tax north of 32%. caterpillar 30.7% or mcdonald's 31.3%. food for thought. this is media double standard makes up to the puke, and ignoring warning of no let than mitt romney make you want to puke even more. bemoaning half of the americans who pay no federal income taxes at all, so many groups were getting their nose out of joint, no one asked, how the heck we do the that number? how is it, that half of all
11:04 pm
eligible americans are not pay anything federal income tax. some are for a legitimate reason, but half? romney talked about everyone having skin in the pain, ronald reagan share that idea, that is why he shut down so many tax loopholes and special corporate ex semptions in 1986, making sure everyone paid their own fair share. everyone paying at least 2 taxes, everyone having skin in the game. "the gipper" was right. breaks in allowances that allow cool companies to pay not one thin dime in taxes is wrong, i say it has to stop,s to right now. -- it stops right now this super hero, do you not -- you do not want to see in spandex has a warning for you tax dodgers, whether this is legal or right or not, the time for dodging is
11:05 pm
now stopped. something anything but with this great country, that made you possible, losing everything. independent women forum super hero, said this is super wrong, and steve moore said that is proof corporate tax code is a super mess. hadley, my issue with this is not so much that all corporations have to pay the same, rate that some considering should be made for newer companies, by argument is that inch should pay something, they are not. >> right, neil, this is cronyism, big business, in bed with big government, have you a tax code, that is 74,000 pages long, it will be full of loopholes and deductions and credits and penalty that will benefit some firms at the expense of others, it is time for a full overhaul of tax
11:06 pm
reform. neil: there arual always cases of company that pay nothing with the big brouhaha years back about ge not paying anything, they are not doing anything criminal, but on principle, and argument for fairness, when we make a big dial about 50% of - big deal of 50% of eligible americans who are not paying taxes, they should pay something. >> if you are a big business, it is your job to make a profit,tions and individuals like me, -- businesses and individuals like me, i seek to minimize my tax. so long as what i'm doing is legal, this is not a problem with profit motive this is a policy problem, where washington, is full of uncle sams who are willing to make deals with corporations, when they are guys like facebook who
11:07 pm
give big time campaign donation to the guys in white house and congress. neil: you know, you argued for years, as long as i've known you, the tax code has to be fixed. i'm wondering whether moments like this, when we find out these companies, they can get away with this we have a tax code that allows it. what do you think it triggers? >> i want to add something to the examples you mentioned of industries and how much they pay in tax rates. you know you left out the clean energy industry, and neil, you know their effective tax rate is negative, they get money back from the government. neil: i did that deliberately, i tell you why. to appear not overtly political abouthis, make a statement about favorite credits and all that don't benefit cause one to
11:08 pm
the other, hadley pointed out where that comes up and why it an issue. but i think the code itself, and how it has been abused that has to be addressed. because it was a dig biel whether people said about mitt romney's tax rate, at least me paid something by comparison. >> the real injustice of corporate tax sim, you have se companies that pay 30, 3 or 35%, tax rate, you have a other companies that pay zero, or in some cases negative. how do you get around that? cret a fair system? i think that is what everyone want, i say, why not go to a consumption tax type system, you know you pay on based on your consumption, everyone pays companies would pay, and you are not penalized for more money that you make, but when you have a tax system, where you got all of these tax breaks, i did some math on this if you can get rid of the tax breaks and code, and
11:09 pm
just lower the tax rate you could get a corporate tax rate down from highnist world down to at least about the average in the world, think about that means for american competitiveness. neil: a very good point, and you know, hadley, i was thinking a lot of people saying more what the standard u.s. corporate tax rate, up to 40% or not that is like a sticker price, you may pay, but oil industry does. that is what they pay. oil stray, that makes a lot of money, it pays a lot back, its contribution collectively to the coffers is equivalent to the gdp of latin america, but -- keeping all this going, i understand that washington wouldment to collectively say thank you. but, they areardly deserving of a screw you. >> president oma loves to demonize oil companies, and he
11:10 pm
said in last state of union address we could save billions by getting rid of tax loopholes, yet he is the guy in power, he said he agrees with republicans in congress about lower the corporate tax rate, why have we not seen any act, i hang on is full of words. >> i have something to add, president had i think at least three commissions, we talked about this many times, that have all recommended same thing, get rid of junk in tax code, lower rate on, side, much more effective. paul volcker who headed president obama a tax commission said that is costing ameca jobs, president obama keeps saying jobs is job number one. why are we not doing this. neil: i think, you know, i think that restaurants, i don't know why i'm fixated on food. but if someone else pays bill you don't care, when i go out, let's say, you try the me, steve, even though i know you are cheap and you wouldn't do, that i would order two
11:11 pm
appetizers and the expensive bottle o wine. >> that is why do i not ask you out for dinner. neil: and i think that americas are -- americans are the same way, if someone else is footing the bill who are you to look at price of the bill. where if you have skin in the game, you are all paying than you are more cog my sent not only -- co coggie -- was not ony service but the tip at the end. >> it reminds me of atlas shrugs, everyone had to have a man in washington in that story, in a economy where big business have to depend on their man in washington, what does that do to the little guy, there is a antigrowth, anticoffnes anticom.
11:12 pm
neil: let me say it would not kill us to at least try to expand the pie a lit so that everyone pays in, and i think with everyone having a piece of the action, not saying poor pay 39% rate, but i think if everyone has something in there we all have, a stake in the action. i think that is being forgotten when some of our premier cool companies, you know, dodge the tax plan all together. you know? >> well put, a big problem with half that are paying taxes and half are not. neil: it is what it is. but i will not let it stand, folks! thank you both very much. good seeing you. neil: the automatic cs are coming now people are not spending, is that because washington is spending so much time scaring the you know what out of them? how is this for scary? sandy victims, remember sandy? still out in the streets.

11:16 pm
because have you, to folks are not shopping at walmart you know consumer confidence is down, washington's scare tactics are having a impact. neil: i think that a lot of americans might be smarter than this, i heard this before, we played this record before, they are scaring us again. life seems to go on. feared cuts they said would happen don't, and talks we'll eat mr. ed because we'll have fewer beef inspectors, never appear to pan out, me thinks they will d doth express this sg frustration too much. >> you would think that sequester was cutting out 75% of the government, i mean, we still have the other 97% to live with every day. so i don't think that the sequester is going to have a big impact, it will have a impact on dc area housing prices, because, if you look at chart, whole northern virginia area, you know
11:17 pm
with defense industry will get hit hardest. but i think there is bigger issues affecting the people that shop at walmart, by the way, i take issue with sharon, you don't shop at walmart because you have, to i like walmart. so -- >> i do too but i like it because of prices. gary difference between a recession and depression is difference between shopping at target and walmart. i should tell you something something anywhere the economy is. neil: i hate shopping so it could be any story, a purgatory. >> things that were there flattening down consumer, were there before the sequester. >> you are right, a lot of noise has been ther. is it a smart strategy, to go ahead, bme the republicans for this and i'm not saying a lot of culpable entities but you, mr. president, you knew this was coming and tucked in that report
11:18 pm

11:20 pm
happens when we have to get really serious with cutting spending and about cutting period. >> define have to, that the issue. look, neil, the types of things they are cutting, maybe it is a game of chicken. obama called two republican leaders, today, and he is in a position now we realizes he might lose pr war, but republicans in house they pass a package of replacement billing they want, responsle cuts, and obama wants these tax hikes and i tnk that, white house is realizing they just might lose the pr war, the republicans have to give -- >> one -- no, democrats appear to be one on defense right now, i'm not taking political sides on this, shock of shocks you disagree. but gary, i i think that there is some you know big call kated calculated risk going on, republicans fill there was no need to come back,
11:21 pm
felt it was easier to accept automatic cuts than entertain more tax hikes they have given more that their pound of flesh in the last dial, the can tell they did all we could we didn't, and come out ahead, will they? >> um, no. i don't think so, you are right in everything that you say, boehner and company are thinking aboutby wanted cuts this is awkward way to do it but we're one step closer, then what will happen, president obama will pin all blame on the republicans. even noy is swify though the ses his idea. then may might have to back up a little bit. neil: and be embarrassed again. to your point. >> two points, one is obama's approval rating today are higher than months. >> i agree. neil: 3%, that is -- >> congress is like a -- so. neil: fine.
11:22 pm
>> bigger issue, we talk abouty is quister whose idea, not one house democrat not one voted for that, all republicans voted for it. not all but all -- >> here is my prediction. i think that president is thinking this his you know what does not you know, what he is over playing his hand, i think you will be surprised to see american people say wait a minute. >> have you been sing that president has been over playing his hand for last 5 years. neil: i have? >> come on. >> i have been watching you for years, and all republicans have been stalko talking about 9 ing about nonstop. neil: you know, what i'm rubber, you are glue, whatever you say -- you know know. china is hacking and now ready to profit from us, the fire sale that could have you burning mad.

example. you got my point. sort of a method to this showcasing what is coming down the pike madness. the journeyman here to sort this out. did sony budget? if it was designed to be secretive. they be limited to it. >> obviously they could give a master class on these events. sunny really wanted to get ahead of the conversation, the game in conversation. coming out in the summer. microsoft is going to introduce the exports. this seemingly have the lead in the cost . trying to make a move and advance. and by the way, they say the harbor is not done. they told us that. they could not show it. they didn't care. and what they ran with was the games and the social connectivity, the social connectivity of the whole place station through the controller. this is actually -- is a share button which by the way, first time in the industry.
